sonnymax Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 The Harmonic Generator consists of five main components: - 64 piano strings on the outside of the device are chromatically tuned to 32 notes. - 32 corresponding motors with bristle paint brushes beating the strings at controlled speeds - a homemade keyboard, played like a piano, controls motors. - 12 pick-ups that focus on one octave of strings - a transducer at the end of the instrument that feeds back the sound of the pick-ups into the large resonance hull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
